Simon, Paul - I Am A Rock Lyrics
A winters day
In a deep and dark December;
I am alone,
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
I've built walls,
A fortress deep and mighty,
That none may penetrate.
I have no need of friendship; friendship causes pain.
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain.
I am a rock,
Don't talk of love,
But I've heard the words before;
It's sleeping in my memory.
I won't disturb the slumber of feelings that have died.
If I never loved I never would have cried.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
I have my books
And my poetry to protect me;
I am shielded in my armor,
Hiding in my room, safe within my womb.
I touch no one and no one touches me.
I am a rock,
I am an island.
And a rock feels no pain;
And an island never cries.

"All trials are trials for one's life, just as all sentences are sentences of death."
Oscar Wilde.

I just love this song so much.
It's ironic actually that I Am a Rock song suggests that the singer repels everyone near him while I Am a Rock stand attract things around the intended target.
I am petrified wood.
Magnificent lyric.
Wonderful music!!
I hear the Dylan influence.
Perfeccion
To my dear brother Chuck. You once wanted to know me. I'm a rock, but I've always been there for everyone. Just a hermit. My daughters call me a Hobbit. I have my own adventures. It's how I make friends.

A winter's day
In a deep and dark
December
I am alone
Gazing from my window to the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
I am a rock
I am an island
My wandering soul, how it aimlessly dwells Among darkened hills, amidst
its unseen spells, And in the distance all that I hear: the summoning of
bells. Far above me, the high boughs they are bending, The once hidden
moon now slowly ascending And as it sings to the world its sleep song, I
sit in its shadow and await my ending.
*TİLDA* hilda mathilda arıyorum
I grew up listening to this duo and the best song out of all their hits has to be bridge over troubled water when I'm down I listen to this and then I don't feel so sad !!
rock level achieved
I thought it said "I do smoke rock, I'm from Rhode Island"
This song is an actual fucking bop
Just a public comment.

Meine Jugend, ich liebe diese Musik immer noch.
Paul Simon was Emo before it was cool
I am shielded in my armor............
I've build walls/ that none will penetrate.........
My introvert friends whenever I ask them to hang out be like
Don't talk of love /It's sleeping in my memorie........
I am old..
60s were the best
manga readers rise up
If you don’t care, then you can never be disappointed.
This song describes the isolation that I hate and the isolation that I love. Brilliant song writing and Paul's voice is so powerful here.
What a song., my fav by Simon and Garfunkel .
Fantastic song. It starts ... and I want to cry ...
You can throw a rock to the bottom of the lake river ocean or leave it in the desert.
This is me/ unfortunately!!
And a rock feels no pain / and an Island never cries......
I touche no- one /And no- one touches me
No man is an island entire of itself; every man
is a piece of the continent, a part of the main;
if a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe
is the less, as well as if a promontory were, as
well as any manner of thy friends or of thine
own were; any man's death diminishes me,
because I am involved in mankind.
And therefore never send to know for whom
the bell tolls; it tolls for thee.
'No Man is an Island' - John Donne
Stone is They
If I never loved I never would have pride....
classic
If I never loved / I never would have cried........
How in the world could anyone thumb this down???
I love being recommended old music
